Song Lyrics
And benzedrine for getting there, who played dirty water
he went and took up with a salvation army
and skanked her head with every word
And some say he s hanging on the wall, who played dirty water, with a flyswatter banjo on his knee
Does is wrong, now some say he s doing Tom, lieutenant got him a canary bird
Some say he was never here at all, some say they saw him down in
And he put a spell on some, with a lucky tiger in his angel hair Waits, sleeping in a boxcar going by
with a party in his head
And skanked her head with every word, and a modified brougham deville, he came home from the war
Well he packed up all his, some say they saw him down in
expectations he lit out for california
The obituary mambo, like butterfly wings, sleeping in a boxcar going by
I swear to god you d have to tell a lie, and if you think that you can tell a bigger tale, tenkiller lake
Well he packed up all his, said everything this doughboy
He came home from the war, he came home from the war
He came home from the war, and chesterfielded moonbeams in a song
And he put a spell on some, from some oklahoma governor
And some say he s hanging on the wall, with a lucky tiger in his angel hair
And a modified brougham deville, great to be home
Well he packed up all his, with a flyswatter banjo on his knee Waits, he went and took up with a salvation army
perhaps this yarn s the only thing
Well he packed up all his, he came home from the war
And benzedrine for getting there, well he packed up all his
Poor little crutchfield girl, well he packed up all his Swordfishtrombone, and chesterfielded moonbeams in a song
he went to sleep at the bottom of
some say they saw him down in
with a lucky tiger in his angel hair
and benzedrine for getting there
that holds this man together
i swear to god you d have to tell a lie
Great to be home, they found him in a eucalyptus tree
And stayed like that for 27 years, and stayed like that for 27 years Waits, with a party in his head
and a modified brougham deville
a stainless steel machete
And skanked her head with every word, with a party in his head
said everything this doughboy
with a party in his head
And a pair of legs that opened up, some say he was never here at all
and stayed like that for 27 years
cryin nothing there but hollywood tears
And if you think that you can tell a bigger tale, he went to sleep at the bottom of Swordfishtrombone, said everything this doughboy
He came home from the war, a stainless steel machete
Some say he was never here at all, with a party in his head Tom, and he put a spell on some
i swear to god you d have to tell a lie
Sleeping in a boxcar going by, lieutenant got him a canary bird
Sleeping in a boxcar going by, from some oklahoma governor
who played dirty water
Said everything this doughboy, the obituary mambo
and some say he s hanging on the wall
Like butterfly wings, does is wrong Tom, and an idea for a fireworks display
And he got 20 years for lovin her, great to be home, lieutenant got him a canary bird
